Is it possible or how hard is it to dry tan a skin after it has been wet tanned? The tannery made a mistake on my two cat skins from Africa by wet tanning them. Once I realized it and questioned them, they said it wouldn't be hard to dry tan them as originally requested. Any risks or issues with my skins? Thanks in advance! | ||

Its all the same tanning process as all hides start out as wet tanned. Then they are tumbled in sawdust drums until broken and dried. Paul B | |||

When I caped my bison I made sure to cape it plenty long. When it was all said and done my taxidermist trimmed almost 18" off the back of the cape. When he finished it up I dropped the off cut at my tame taxidermist (different guy) who dried it out for me. Now I have an 18" strip of bison midsection that I have to decide what to do with. Maybe a wicked set of chaps...
